Of course, they're going to use Linux or BSD. But I recently saw a demo of Commodore OS Vision 3.0, which I understand is a Linux distro, and I was overwhelmed by the kitsch. That's what we don't need - how would Linux look if it had been released in the 80s?
I guess what I'm getting at is if Commodore just wants to re-hash their glory days in a modern context, then that's an extremely limited market. I'd like to see the 2020's equivalent of a Commodore 64 or Commodore Amiga: what kind of machine would you end up with by appealing to everyday people and not worrying so much about standards? THAT is what made those machines special. We don't need a re-creation of those machines; we need new machines embodying those ideals.
If Commodore decides to take this route, then they can give me a call!
